emergency – The Aged P https://www.theagedp.com ...just toasting and ruminating.... Fri, 09 Apr 2021 10:40:48 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.9.34 In Our Emergency NHS Came Up Trumps https://www.theagedp.com/?p=6520 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 10:00:10 +0000 http://www.theagedp.com/?p=6520 Full marks to the NHS..The Lovely Mrs P slipped and fell while we were out hiking. Fortunately we were just starting out, 100 yds from the car park. A friend an I managed to lift her up but she couldn’t press with her right foot so we hobbled to the car.

Drove to East Surrey Hospital A&E…from arrival at emergency, initial assessment, further examination, X Ray, broken ankle diagnosed, leg plastered and leaving for home…all in just under 2 hours. Staff were efficient, caring, considerate and good humoured…just sayin’…..
